Hi,

I'm encountering a few errors manipulating existing PDF files that originate from an external website:
- If I save them as files and use Merge(filename1, filename2) the Merge succeeds.
- If I create PdfDocument objects from exactly the same files and try Merge(doc1, doc2) I encounter an 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object' error in the merge. I have verified that both doc1 and doc2 are themselves correctly populated - this error is originating from inside EO.Pdf.

I encounter further problems when trying to manipulate with EO.Pdf (e.g. merge) the document that results from a file-based merge. I believe that the PDF files in question contain some form of active scripting - could that be causing a problem?

I can provide samples of the files in question but prefer not to post them to a public forum.

- Charles
